Thanks.

This is contrary to what you originally wrote (with which I agree):

> It is not a bug in `bookmark-jump` but in `eww-bookmark-jump` (the eww
> bookmark handler) which uses wrongly the function `eww` which itself uses
> `pop-to-buffer-same-window`.  Probably a lower level function should be
> used (if one?).

By contrast, the change you propose now will affect all the uses of
bookmarks, everywhere, which is riskier, given how many different
variants of bookmark usage are out there.

Why did you change your mind about the preferred way of fixing this?
